Chapter 516 Kitchen Knife
Zheng Ke blinked his eyes when he heard Omido Fumio's words, the kitchen knife... Hirata Nozomi was finally ready.

After receiving the box from Mrs. Omido Wenxu, Zheng Ke's heart was beating wildly. The competition was about to start, and the kitchen knife was delivered to him in time. In the remaining week, he had to get acquainted with the new chef as soon as possible. knife.

The other first graders immediately gathered around, and even Xinghei stood behind, looking at the knife box curiously.

Zheng Keyou was quite excited, not only because this was his first set of kitchen knives, but also because the price of this set of kitchen knives was really touching.

Zheng Ke quickly removed the plastic on the surface, and inside was a plastic-sealed dark wooden box, which was ordinary.Tear off the plastic seal and open the wooden box. Inside is a thick layer of sponge. In the center of the sponge is a small black leather box with carved patterns. The size is not too big, about 40 cm long and 30 cm wide.

Zheng Ke rubbed his hands to calm down his excitement, and then solemnly opened the suitcase.

Chef's knife, slicer knife, willow blade, three kitchen knives are placed side by side in the knife box.

Zheng Ke picked up the chef's knife and looked at it carefully.

The patterns that appear after repeated folding and forging, like waves, are attached to the body of the knife, which looks extraordinarily beautiful, while the blade emits a sharp light, as if it can tear the air in the next moment.As for the handle of the knife, it is polished with high-quality antlers, and it is indescribably comfortable to hold in the hand.At the end of the handle, Zheng Ke's name and the serial number of the kitchen knife are engraved.

In contrast, the slice knife is relatively ordinary.Wide open and close, excellent polish.Compared with the blade, the dark red hilt attracted Zheng Ke's attention.After careful polishing, the handle of the knife has a smooth luster, which is delicate and smooth.Holding it in his hand, it was cold and thick, and the comfortable feel made Zheng Ke almost utter a sound.

"Snakewood!"

This kind of thick and solid feel can only be found in serpentine wood.

Snakewood has a very high density and is one of the most expensive woods in the world.I didn't expect Nozomi Hirata to use this kind of wood for the handle of the knife. However, after thinking about the price of this knife, all these doubts dissipated.

The last one is a willow blade, the handle is an octagonal red sandalwood handle, the blade is slender and thin, when holding it in his hand, Zheng Ke clearly felt the difference of this willow blade.The sharp blade is sharp and thin, and although the blade is narrow, it is full of cold light. The fingers pass over the blade, and there is a slight pain in the fingers even though there is no contact.

50 each, although this price is almost sky-high for Zheng Ke, but he thinks these three knives are worth so much.

"Senior, there are still things below." Yiwu Qijun reminded.

"Below?" Zheng Ke's eyes moved to the bottom of the box, and there was still a smaller box in the middle of the sponge.

"It can't be the manual, or the precautions, right?" Zheng Ke smiled wryly.

Now that the three kitchen knives have been obtained, Zheng Ke is not going to look at what is in the box.However, seeing the curious eyes of Tian Suohui, Yoshino Yuki, and even Xingping Chuangzhen, Zheng Ke had no choice but to open the box to satisfy their curiosity.

However, when the heavy small box was dragged in Zheng Ke's hand, he immediately knew that there was no manual inside the box, because it weighed about as much as a piece of steel.

Wouldn't it be a kitchen knife?No... I must have only ordered three.So... what's in it?

Full of doubts, Zheng Ke opened the small box, and then he was stunned, and the others were also surprised, only Yishuihui looked normal.

"It turned out to be a nested knife." Yi Sehui said.

"Nested knife?" Zheng Ke has only used ordinary kitchen knives before, but this is the first time he has seen this kind of nested knife.

The "cooking knife" in Zheng Ke's hand is far from a kitchen knife at first glance. It is even more accurate to say that it is a specially modified iron plate.

The length of the iron block is equivalent to that of a chef's knife, slightly wider than a chef's knife. The surface is deeply engraved with several beautiful interlocking lines. It looks like kitchen knives of different sizes. After overlapping each other, they are compacted into a sheet. The look of flakes.

"You mean——this is a kitchen knife?" Zheng Ke looked at Yisehui.

"This is not one, but four." Yisehui took the iron sheet from Zheng Ke's hand, and then skillfully disassembled the iron sheet, "In the West, sometimes it is very troublesome to carry so many kitchen knives, and it is difficult to It takes up space, so some people wondered whether these kitchen knives could be fitted together, so this set of kitchen knives was created.”

After Yisehui disassembled, the nesting knife was divided into five parts, except for the outermost knife seat, from the inside to the outside, one is a paring knife, a carving knife, a chef's knife and a slicing knife, of which the paring knife is the smallest. On the innermost side, the slicing knife is on the outermost side, and there is only one arc left in the whole, like a crescent moon. As for the carving knife and chef's knife, the blades are hollow and can be nested in each other.

"These knives are interesting." Zheng Ke picked up the chef's knife, which is not the same weight as the one just now, but it is finely crafted and feels good in the hand.

This kind of kitchen knife looks very good, but it is a bit awkward to use.However, considering that this is to reduce space and facilitate portability, this combination is also good.

Unexpectedly, after asking Mr. Hirata to forge three knives, he actually sent another set of knives.Looking at it this way, 150 million yen is really worth the money.

The others played with each other and were amazed.

"Senior, this set of knives must be expensive, right?" Yoshino Yuki asked with a smile.

"It's expensive on the one hand, and on the other hand, it's very hard to find a master knife maker. I dragged Catherine's relationship, so I reluctantly asked this master knife maker to forge knives for me."

Now Zheng Ke recalled the scene of meeting Hirata Wang a month ago, and couldn't help sighing. Maybe Zheng Ke would never forget that experience for a long time.

"However, French kitchen knives are not the best in the world... It would be great if they were Japanese or German kitchen knives." Jun Ibuzaki said thoughtfully.

"My sword was made by a Japanese swordsmith living in France," Zheng Ke explained.

"Japanese swordsmith..." Yishihui's face tightened. He still has research on kitchen knives, but he has never heard of any famous Japanese swordsmiths in France. However, judging by the workmanship of these three kitchen knives, it is clear that there are masters. level.

"That's right, Mr. Hirata Wang from Japan." Zheng Ke said.

"Oh, it turned out to be Master Hirata." Yishihui suddenly realized, "That's no wonder, Master Hirata was very famous in Japan before, but he suddenly disappeared, and he didn't expect to go to France. By the way, my father also asked Hirata for his kitchen knives." It took a long time for the master to build it. Unexpectedly, you found Master Hirata Wang."

"I'm just lucky."

Zheng Ke thought about it carefully, if he hadn't met Leon, he wouldn't have had the chance to know Hirata Nozomi's name. Speaking of which, luck did play a large role.
